Was Magnus Carlsen A 'Limited' Player? Viswanathan Anand Says 'Areas Where No One...'
Last Updated: Viswanathan Anand has spoken on Magnus Carlsen's growth from a limited player to an unbeatable chess force, emphasising his endgame skills. Legendary Indian chess player Viswanathan Anand has said that Magnus Carlsen used to be a limited player, in the sense that some of his tactics in the endgame and technical positions were brilliant, which made him almost impossible to beat for a long period. It was Carlsen who ended Anand's long reign at the pinnacle of the sport and he has spoken in detail about the former's style of play and what made him an unbeatable beast. Anand elaborated on what happened in 2013 and 2014 when he first lost his World Championship title to Carlsen and then couldn't recapture it in 2015 after winning the Candidates. 'As for Magnus, he used to be quite a limited player, very, very good in that specific area. He limited himself to areas where no one else was focusing, like the endgame and dry technical positions," Anand said while speaking on Prakhar Gupta's podcast. 'He (Carlsen) saw potential where others saw paint drying and he was able to lure a lot of unsuspecting chess players to their doom over and over again. He was cashing in those points before people learned the hard way to take those positions seriously and start working on them," Anand said. 'Dry positions, where it seems you're just on the way to making a draw… he understood that you still need to be precise. When people relax, they stop being precise; they go through the motions but aren't paying attention anymore," Anand added. Carlsen is a five-time World Chess Champion, five-time World Rapid Chess Champion and the reigning (shared with Ian Nepomniachtchi) eight-time World Blitz Chess Champion. Carlsen has held the No. 1 position in the FIDE rankings since 1 July 2011, the longest successive streak and trails just Garry Kasparov in time spent as the highest-rated player in the world. His peak rating of 2882 is the highest in history. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.

What makes Magnus Carlsen ‘universally' great? R Praggnanandhaa claims ‘He has this…. which is just amazing'
Magnus Carlsen is considered by many to be the greatest-ever chess player in history, and it is well-deserved. The Norwegian has dominated world chess for years and has held the No. 1 position in the FIDE rankings since July 1, 2011, a streak that is also the longest consecutive one. He trails only Garry Kasparov in the time spent as the highest-rated player in the world. R Praggnanandhaa in action against Magnus Carlsen in Las Vegas.(ChessBase) Carlsen has a peak rating of 2882, the highest in history. Recently, R Praggnanandhaa gave some insight into what makes Carlsen great. The Indian GM also made comparisons between him and Carlsen. R Praggnanandhaa on Magnus Carlsen's greatness Speaking on a YouTube podcast show, he said, 'He has this intuition in every position which is just amazing. Like when you actually see his game — even in shorter formats — he usually plays the top three choices of the computer every single time. That intuition is something that he developed over a period of time. He's one of the players who knows a lot of classics from the past. He has read a lot and I think that's one thing he has that helps him. Also mentally he's really strong. You can never see him collapse in a tournament completely. Even when you actually make a mistake when he's lost he's there fighting every chance he's getting and he pushes till the end like he tries every resource that's possible.' 'He exhausts them and I think that's one of the reasons he's he's at the top and when he was coming up. He was playing these end games which people in earlier days thought it was completely fine. They will just make draws because of mutual respect for the players. They'll think it's okay no one is going to win this. Let's make an early draw. But Magnus started playing all those positions. He started grinding and then started winning also. So he's just universally strong and he's mentally also strong which is really…' On what makes him and Carlsen different, he said, 'I have never thought about this actually. If I have to speak about the style, he's more of an intuitive player. His intuition is so good. Even though my intuition suggests a move, I usually try to go in details. It's possible that I can catch him there because he hasn't gone into the details. Sometimes intuition can also be wrong and I can catch him. Our games are always exciting.' Carlsen is also a five-time World Chess Champion and five-time Rapid World Chess Champion. He didn't defend his world title in 2023, citing a lack of motivation and is not expected in the upcoming Candidates either.

Don't rule out any formats: Anand's message to players
Even as the third edition of the Chennai Grand Masters began on Thursday, a tournament close to Gukesh's heart, the teen was in Poland to play Duda, the 2021 World Cup winner who was one of the Indian's seconds at last year's World Championship. Even as chess' elite have never had it this good in terms of invites, it has kind of led to a debate on whether this is unsustainable in terms of preparation, giving adequate time for training and so on. Viswanathan Anand, who mixed Blitz and Rapid with the rigours of Classical when he was a fully active player on the circuit, said he found no issues with it. "The simplest way to say it is that they shouldn't rule out any format mentally," the five-time world champion told select media on the sidelines of the fourth day of the Chennai Grand Masters. "In a sense, you don't probably have good results in all the formats, in all the years but I don't think you're assured of one format either. I mean Gukesh has had a bad Classical (meet) in Romania, for instance. I think when one misfires, you should be able to compete in the other. So, you should try to be competitive in all. Maybe you won't succeed, but it's worth it." Anand himself is no stranger to adapting to times like this. Even if he has stopped playing Classical chess for all practical purposes, the five-time world champion has faced off against Argentina's Faustino Oro (nicknamed Chessi), the 11-year-old said to have a big future. When asked if he saw himself as playing a lot of one-off exhibition tournaments like that, he said: "No, I dont see myself settling in for one genre. Having made the point that, I should try to be good at other formats. I should follow it myself." Never short of a quip or two, the FIDE administrator was firmly tongue in cheek when replying to a query on the kind of advice he would give Gukesh to ensure the latter levels don't drop. "I think 'mera pass panch hai (I have five titles) is a good starting point," he said with a smile. "I think he knows what to do. "Sport is evolving very fast, new formats, new things. I think the only thing I can do is if they ask, I can describe how I faced a certain situation and then it would be their job to convert that. We are not comparing the same thing anymore." Sunday's results (Round 4) Masters: Karthikeyan Murali bt Jorden van Foreest, Ray Robson drew with Awonder Liang, Nihal Sarin bt Arjun Erigaisi, V Pranav drew with Vidit Gujrathi, Vincent Keymer drew with Anish Giri. Challengers: Diptayan Ghosh bt GB Harshavardhan, P Iniyan bt Aryan Chopra, Adhiban Baskaran drew with M Pranesh, Leon Mendonca bt D Harika, Abhimanyu Puranik bt R Vaishali.
